How to Make an Herb Gimlet

Learn how to make a refreshing and delicious Herb Gimlet, the ultimate seasonal cocktail.

Start by making your Herb Simple Syrup.

Heat ½ cup sugar and ½ cup water in a saucepan over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar fully dissolves. Remove the pan from the heat and add 3 sprigs of mint, 3 sprigs of tarragon, 3 sprigs of lemon thyme and a 1-inch lemon strip.

Transfer this to a bowl and place uncovered in the fridge until it is cool. Once the syrup has cooled, transfer to an airtight container for up to two weeks.
